Book Pills
So you’ve got all the book shelves, yes? I bet you don’t have a stack of pill-shaped bookshelves. Take a peek at this stack of shelves right here. Made of flexible inner materials (aluminum or iron) and a little bit more flexible material (rubber or sponge), plus the outer shell of plastic. That’s a recipe for a good time. A good time with amazing bookshelves.
The rad part of these shelves is the flexible materials on the inside – they allow for an adjustable bookend or bookends! You can move em all around the outsides or put them right in the middle.
Made for only the most advanced pop or mod households.
Or music label offices of course.

Minimount System Lets You Use Netbooks in Physically Demanding Situations
Most of the times when we use our laptops on the go, it becomes quite difficult to balance or even protect them from unwanted jerky movements and physical damage.
If you use your laptop or netbook in physically demanding situations such as shop floors, boats, mobile offices, or areas where there are machines, you might want to try a mount system that not only protects the netbook, but also adjusts the netbook to a particular angle and height to avoid physical exertion.
The Minimount is a Hard Shell Case and Mount System that is specifically made for netbook computers. It could be used in any busy environment and turns physically demanding situations into a wireless work place. They are rugged, lightweight and made from anodized aluminum shell. You could carry it almost everywhere you go and is pretty affordable too, at $79.

Magical Transformatron Boxes from Space
This project right here is called “Boxetti.” It’s a series of box-like forms that transform into everything you could ever want in a single piece of furniture. There are five different boxes you can choose from, or if you’re totally into this, choose them all: bedroom, sofa, office, television, and kitchen. I would NOT mind having any one of these in my giant beachside penthouse.
Boxetti_Private is the bedroom model: it folds down into a double bed, a nightstand, and a wardrobe. The bed is lifted automatically by remote control, and has ambience lighting as well as a spotlight. The wardrobe is made up of six sections for all your bedroom thangs needs.
Boxetti_Lounge is the sofa: it can act as a couch with the two coffee tables pulled out, or it can be a giant table. With both options, several surfaces can be folded out from the sides for more workspace.
Boxetti_Practice is the office: Manual foldaway desk top with drawers, bookshelves, chill-niche for a nice sit, and optional finishing with leather or other fabrics.
Boxetti_Thrill is the tv: it’s a full entertainment center of course, with gigantic fold-out hi-fi speakers. An automatic HAFELE lift system brings the TV up, the TV is flat and 46″, High Standart 7.1ch Reciever and basic BluRay player. Also enclosed storage space for 8tracks and VHS — OR DVDs of course.*
*The Thrill does not have 8track or VHS capability.
Boxetti_Lunch is the kitchen: island unit from heaven has a sink, tap, infinite drawers, oak tree cutting board, built-in LED spotlight, two bar seats, space for built-in fridge, and a nice shiny exterior.
And you know what the best part is?
The demo picture has The Fifth Element playing on the TV.
BEST!

Fallen Empire: Dictator’s Destroyed & Recycled Palaces
[ By Delana in Abandoned Places,Architecture & Design,Urban Images. ]
It’s a surreal, otherworldly scene: ornate palaces with the finest appointments being used as temporary shelter for American soldiers. The detritus of their everyday lives mingles with the ornate columns, shiny marble floors and war rubble in the palaces built by former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. After the dictator was forced from power and his property seized, the US Army moved their command headquarters into Al-Faw Palace in Camp Victory.
Photographer Richard Mosse traveled to Iraq to document this bizarre circumstance, this juxtaposition of supposed liberators dwelling in the very home of the dictator they vowed to depose. He called the resulting book Breach, a nod to the liberators stepping into the breach they created when Hussein was removed from power.
That’s not to say that Mosse’s work is sternly anti-war. He seeks to show extraordinary images of an unprecedented situation with a fair measure of neutrality. He didn’t resort to telling one side of the story or another; he simply made photographs that, regardless of how you feel about the war, are moving.
Al-Faw wasn’t the only palace occupied by US forces. Of the 81 palaces Hussein built for himself, Mosse was only able to visit three in his month in Iraq: Al-Faw in Baghdad, Al-Salam in Baghdad, and Saddam’s Birthday Palace in Tikrit.
Minitecture: 15 Ultra-Modern Dollhouse Designs
Dollhouses have a long history, beginning in the 17th century. They were originally used to display interior designs, but eventually came to be used as children’s playthings. Today, they’re still loved by children, but there is also a growing global community of adult miniature collectors who value dollhouses for their style and quality. There is a huge variety to be found in the world of tiny houses, from the elaborate handmade houses to the mass-produced plastic ones. For many of us, the dollhouses we remember from childhood are the frilly Victorian type or the sterile Barbie’s Dream Houses. But there’s a whole world of sleek, stylish modern dollhouses out there, just waiting to instill a love of modern architecture in your little one.

Fabulous prefab dollhouse design is also from Paris Renfroe; in fact, it was his first foray into miniature home design. The modern, open home could easily be a real city dwelling, complete with small backyard pool and intimate second-floor patio.

The Mini House 1 is another take on the modern modular dollhouse design. The upper and lower units can be purchased separately or together so you can come up with your own unique home design. The sleek lines and glass fronts offer an unquestionably modern alternative to those character-less plastic dollhouses many of us grew up with.

Magical things happen in dollhouses. Miniature lives are lived while children develop their social skills and imaginations. This gorgeous modern dollhouse from Minimii encourages that learning and playing with a design that even grownups will love. This house is an exact 1:14 replica of famed architect Arne Jacobsen’s beloved home. The company even offers modern furniture to outfit the crisp modern rooms.

For all of the minuscule minimalist modernists out there, this A-frame dollhouse is based on Andrew Geller’s similarly-shaped teepee home from the 1950s. The unusual shape lends itself well to imaginative play, while the design itself is visually interesting enough that you’ll want to keep it out on the table rather than hide it away with the rest of the toys.

Lincoln Chairs for 2010
Do you know what Lincoln Logs are? They are wooden toys shaped like logs (aka fallen trees) with notches in them so they can be stacked in any number of ways to create log structures. Log cabins is what they had in mind, the same kind US President Abraham Lincoln lived in as a child. This tradition of selling the parts and allowing the customer create the product is continued here, now, today, in a table system dubbed “Molecule.”
Molecule comes in several different sizes and shapes and colors, all based on two main shapes. As the shapes are brought together, they create molecule-like amalgamations, making for unique and easily re-configurable table groups with chairs. All wood veneer with an upholstered pad top.
